The best virtual classroom solution.

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: From the start nearly 2-years ago with a sales rep to today, I have had a great experience. Their sales rep knew the product well and had the authority to make things happen. After purchase, I was connected with an account manager that knew the product very well and helped me get started. Overall, Cloudshare has be an integral part of our training; especially during COVID.

Pros:

The overall speed and ease in creating virtual machines, taking snapshots, and configuring a virtual classroom.

Cons:

I wish the virtual classroom had the ability to call into a phone number for audio purposes. However, we successfully use a 3rd party solution for audio. If computer audio is all you need, then Cloudshare's audio solution for the virtual classroom is great. They have consistently improved the video/webcam and audio tools.

Alternatives Considered: SkyTap Cloud

Reasons for Choosing CloudShare: We wanted the extra classroom infrastructure that Cloudshare provides. It is very well constructed.

Switched From: Zoom Workplace

Reasons for Switching to CloudShare: The Virtual Classroom functionality was more intuitive and full-featured.

Sandbox, Demo, Customized Scenarios - On Demand

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: Enables live product demonstration in standardized and customized scenarios easily shared with customers live or asynchronously. After dozens of customer environment shares and more demo delivery utilization I've found it easy to use and educate people on its use.

Pros:

Easy ability to spin up a customer demo environment tailored to their immediate requirements. This gives each training session or customer scenario build out a human touch where it is needed and pre-defined standardization where its not.

Cons:

UI/UX could use some updates specifically to make using cloud folders easier to use. The ability to setup email alerts when a user connects to a shared environment, or a daily/weekly end user activity report on shared environments to track usage.

Cloudshare for Technical Sales

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I've been using Cloudshare for over 7 years and have taught over 500 student how to use Palo Alto Networks products. My students keep coming back to learn more.

Pros:

Cloudshare is a great way to teach customer to use your products. In technical sales it's important for customer to understand what your products can do and Cloudshare is an excellent platform to leverage to transfer that knowledge.

Cons:

Some of the desktop sharing between students and instructor take a bit of discovery to understand. They could be a bit more intuitive.
